PLEASE HELP! URGENT!!! ):

Find the greatest common factor of these two expressions.
18w^6u^8 and 30w^2u^5y^7

Answer 1

18w^6u^8 = 2 * 3 * 3 * w^6 * u^8

30w^2u^5y^7 = 2 * 3 * 5 * w^2 * u^5 * y^7

The greatest common factor of these two expressions is 2 * 3 * w^2 * u^5

So the greatest common factor of 18w^6u^8 and 30w^2u^5y^7 is

2 * 3 * w^2 * u^5
